On April 21 I recently got Married at the Redondo Beach and Marina Crowne Plaza, the entire process…read moreof planning a wedding is very stressful. It also seems like every vendor is has their own agenda which further complicates the entire process. This is why I loved the work that Yuliya and Oleksiy did for our wedding, I just got a copy of the pictures and I couldn't be more pleased. All you have to do is a take a look at their web site to see they are great photographers and the work they did for us was phenomenal. I guess as some one who has just gone through the whole process I see value in this review if I can express or share something you can't get from a contract, email exchange the many things you can gleam from the long grueling and painful wedding planning process. This is the one moment of truth item, its the fact that they cared and did the things they had to do to make it a great experience, believe me when i tell you not every vendor cares. The Yuka team was extremely friendly to our guests, they stuck to the letter of the contract and if anything exceeded our expectations. They were so kind and it made the day easy. Yuliya and Oleksiy cared and it showed in the product from the actual day of the wedding up until i just got a copy of my pictures a few minutes ago. Yulia has a great eye, she was able to see locations, opportunities and venues and and take advantage of them and it resulted in great pictures. She has the patience of a saint listening to the various photo suggestions people in the wedding party, in addition to family members. They were devoted through out the whole process and if we have an opportunity we would use them again. Yuliya and Oleksiy also handled my sisters weddings and they both feel the same way I do. If you want to to check one thing out of your list of potential stressful items I would recommend going with Yuka

She needs to work on her skill a little more. 2nd time she has taken pics of my daughter. Her…read moredance studio has her come in to take the pics. Both times were not great. Her pics are either really close up or very far away. Doesn't pose the kids, I'm all for non posed pics however when it's for dance that's completely different. The lighting is always bad. I take better pics. Her new thing is she puts these extremely heavy watermarks on her digital images so you can't print them out. While I understand that concept, these were so obnoxious me and my sister both said the same thing about our kids pics. We couldn't really tell what we were purchasing. So blurry. When I contacted her she said replied with, adorable, lots of smiles. Sure, because she can actually see them, I can't. What would she say, oh they look awful? When telling her I couldn't really tell due to the watermark, she ignored me and never emailed me back again. I think she just assumes if parents want a pic of their kid in their costumes that bad they will pay for it. And she would be correct. Here I am after going back and forth with frustration ended up giving in and purchasing the 3 I felt looked decent. When the watermark was removed after I paid of course, I wish I haven't done that. Should have went with my gut on this one and not purchased. Each digital download was $35 or you get 5 images for $100 as a package deal. I couldn't even pic out 5 good ones out a total of 34 images she took. Save your money. Hire someone else. If her studio has her come back, I definitely won't be sending my daughter in on pic day. Waste of good hair, costumes, and makeup.

With the birth of my second child approaching, I was searching for a photographer to capture…read morepictures of my family and newborn. I had seen Jessica's work on Facebook and was referred by a friend who had nothing but great things to say. I purchased a large photo package which included maternity photos and pictures of my baby right after she born, at 3, 6, 9, and 12 months. I knew what I wanted my photo package to look like and Jessica was very accommodating. Good photos aren't cheap, but I found Jessica's prices to be comparable to other photographers. Our first photo shoot was done outside. My son didn't cooperate at all, but she still managed to get great pictures. Our second photo shoot was for my daughter's newborn photos and that was done in her studio. The studio was a clean professional space that was decorated very nicely. One thing that I love about Jessica is the number of photos she gives you. You definitely get your money's worth! Jessica also prides herself on getting you your photos on time!

Getting married in or around Buffalo?

I was honestly a little worried about hiring these photographers because I knew that they did a lot…read moreof those random detail photos, and I didn't want those. I wanted shots of PEOPLE. That was stupid to worry about. They took amazing photographs. My husband and I are not the most photogenic people in the world (to say the least) and they made us look nice! We got great shots of our families, and a number of good shots of people at the reception. Also, they were extremely inconspicuous during the ceremony, which we really appreciated (although we do wish that there were a few more photos of us actually saying our vows).

Oops! I forgot Yelp…read moreis where I found this fantastic photographer until I was cleaning up my bookmarks. Sam was very proactive and worked with us to schedule around unpredictable fall weather. She was friendly, patient and took some great pictures of our family on a cold and windy but sunny day in October after a few reschedules due to rain. I look forward to next year's pictures...maybe just not in the fall ;)

Emily has provided both for our family…read more The family photo she took is still one of my favorites, just us in our home with our kids and dogs in our natural setting, not staged, presenting us as we are. The video she made for me asking my kids questions about me and our life is truly priceless. It made me smile, laugh and cry. I know I will treasure her video even more later in life when I can replay it and hear my kids thoughts and little voices that will change sooner than I'm ready for. Thank you Emily for sharing your vision with us, you are so talented!

LOVE LOVE LOVE them! I went to Ascension Visionary Concepts for my maternity photo shoot and I was…read moretaken aback by the outstanding customer service and professionalism Timothy and Deanne (the photographers) exuded. I went to the shoot completely under prepared. I had no idea how to pose, what type of background I wanted, or what unique touch I wanted to add to make the photos my own. T&D had that completely handled for me (such a breath of fresh air :) They showed me a few different "maternity" poses and had 2 perfect locations already planned for me. Timothy is such a perfectionist in the perfect way. He really knew how to bring out the "Top Model" in my partner and me, who had no clue what to do with ourselves in pictures. The chemistry between Timothy and Deanne was amazing. It definitely rubbed off on us and made our pictures even more beautiful. They are so friendly and the quality of work they give you is just wonderful. I highly recommend them and look forward to working with them again!
